jerry sandusky on the eve of his sentencing for sexual abuse and abc senior national correspondent jim avila to tell us what he's saying. >> reporter: good evening, diane. tomorrow is judgment day to sentence jerry sandusky to life and live out the rest of his days in prison. tonight in a highly unorthodox move he put out a daring statement to the penn state college radio station, on the tape he defiantly accuses his victims of lying and insists he is an innocent man. >> i'm responding to the worst loss of my life. first i looked at myself. over and over i asked why? why didn't we have a fair opportunity to prepare for trial? why have so many people suffered as a result of false allegations. what's the purpose? maybe it will help others. some vulnerable children who could be abused might not be as a result of all the publicity. that would be nice, but i'm not sure about it. i would cherish the opportunity to become a candle for others as they have been a light for me. they can take away my life. they can make me out as a monster, they can treat me as a monster but they can't take away

jim avila, abc news, new york. >> neither one of us, of course, sat on that jury, but i think it's common opinion most people consider him to be guilty for a multitude of reasons. the statements, the creepy interview with bob costas, and one of the lines, "think about how easy it was for them to turn on me, given the information, attention, and potential perks." his statement is trying to make himself sound like a victim. let's take that at its value for a second. why would the community all of a sudden conspire against this man using the most horrifying kinds of charges. it's just baffling i think to so many folks. >> yeah. and the saddest part is there doesn't seem to be any remorse for any of the victims at all. >> no. >> now they have to be concerned with where to place him in the state in terms of penitentiaries. there is 25 prisons for men in pennsylvania, but none that have a specific ward or housing unit for sex offenders. you have to be concerned about that. he is going to be a target. >> his safety. there is court justice and jail justice. crimes against women and especially kid
